* Do not apply more than 5.5V dc to the gray wire.
1. Apply power to the Gateway by connecting the 10–30V dc cable as shown.
The Gateway begins in RUN mode, displays the current network ID (NID), then identifies itself as a Gateway.
2. Apply power to the Node by connecting the 10–30V dc cable or the DX81 Battery Supply Module as shown. To apply
power to a FlexPower Node with an integrated battery, install the battery into the housing.
The Node starts in RUN mode, displays the current network ID, then identifies itself as a Node and lists its device ID.
3.4 Binding Radios to Form Networks
Binding Nodes to a Gateway ensures the Nodes only exchange data with the Gateway they are bound to. For a more detailed definition
of binding mode, refer to the Advanced Setup section of the SureCross Wireless I/O Network manual.
Apply power to the Gateway and the Node you are binding.
1. Enter binding mode on the Gateway.
If you have a two-button Gateway, triple-click button 2
If you have a one-button Gateway, triple-click the button
If you have a Gateway with no buttons, remove the rotary dial access cover and set both the right and left rotary
dials to 0, then set both the right and left rotary dials to F.
The red LEDs flash alternately when the Gateway is in binding mode. Any Node entering binding mode will bind to this
Gateway.
2. Enter binding mode on the Node.
If you have a two-button Node, triple-click button 2
If you have a one-button Node, triple-click the button
If you have a Node with no buttons, remove the top cover and set both the left and right rotary dials to F to enter
binding mode.*
* Some older M-GAGE Nodes (models DX80N*X1W0P0ZR) may require F-F binding despite having a single button.
The Node enters binding mode and locates the Gateway in binding mode. For two LED models, the red LEDs flash alter-
nately.
For one-LED models, the red and green LED flashes alternately while the Node searches for the Gateway; after binding
is complete, the LED is red and green for four seconds (looks orange), then the red and green flash simultaneously
(looks orange) four times.
The Node automatically exits binding mode. After the Node is bound, the LEDs are both solid red for a few seconds.
The Node cycles its power, then enters RUN mode.
3. Use both of the Node's rotary dials to assign a valid decimal Node Address (between 01 and 47). The left rotary dial
represents the tens digit (0 through 4) and the right dial represents the ones digit (0 through 9) of the Node Address.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 for all Nodes that need to communicate to this Gateway.
5. Exit binding mode on the Gateway.
If you have a two-button Gateway, single-click either button
If you have a one-button Gateway, single-click the button
If you have a Gateway with no buttons, change the Gateway's rotary dials to a valid Network ID
